Title: USS Samuel B. Roberts, DE-413
Post by: crazygary on November 06, 2015, 07:40:07 pm
Would anyone happen to know exactly where the Sammy B. had her hedgehog launcher mounted?
I have read that it is located forward of the bridge, but do not know where? Perhaps aft of the
forward 5" gun mount?


Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Gary, the grainy pics on line suggest it's in the same place as DE405, i.e. between the 5" and the bridge in a tub. What looks like the deflector sticks up in the right place :-)
